It is Sabri's joke.
My Most Esteemed Master, Hazreti Ekrem Effendi; the one who has been radiating luminous, sacred, and meaningful words in the realm of truth for forty years, opening all the windows of the path and the journey of sülûk in their entirety, calling out with the loud cry "Rise up, O brothers!" while those with a subtle gaze, who see and hear clearly and turn to Him with longing, are already walking shoulder to shoulder with this humble servant. After reading the Ninth Point of the Twenty-Ninth Letter, which encompasses nine pages of happiness, I learned to some extent, according to my capacity. I further confirmed that it contains endless radiance and countless diverse forms. Praise be to Allah, at that point, my heart, which was in need of light, was granted abundant luminous gifts.
Immersing myself in the ocean of truth, which my heart can feel but my tongue cannot express, I sincerely wish and earnestly hope from the depths of my soul and spirit that this heavy work may become a source of gratitude and thanks, and that its essence and beyond may be fully realized and experienced. Indeed, three additional recommendations were kindly granted.
This concluding part, with its guidance and warnings that show the way to escape from the traps, has truly become a page of happiness and a source of renewed life. What can one say to those who, at every moment, avoid at least a thousand and one kinds of fruits of happiness and are not worthy of that great road, yet try to extinguish this bright lamp, which is the most luminous of examples, in order to open the valleys of darkness and misguidance?
May the luminous rays, which with their unique branches revive and transform the present age and truly plan and establish the map of the future, remain eternal. I pray that the Almighty Creator may grant success and ease to these luminous works for the benefit of the entire Ummah of Muhammad (peace be upon him). Ameen.

It is a joke by Husrev.
Dear Master; I received your lovely letter, which in the grace of the prayer of Kenzü'l-Arş, brought a Qur'anic point, asking how our mistake was received from our side, and explaining the reasons of our error. I read this part together with the Sixth Remiz, which shows the subtle and lofty correspondences of the Sûre-i Kevser, and also with the part belonging to a path greater than a great opening.
This week my joy and excitement were very great. On one hand, that precious treasure of truths, which had been prepared for years to be published and announced to the Islamic world, was being sent to safe places. On the other hand, we were living within the spiritual joy given by each part of the Twenty-Ninth Letter, which appeared before us with the attractive beauty of this spring and a very high luminosity.
Before your letter arrived, we re-read together a second Qur'anic point that came from the grace of the prayer of Kenzü'l-Arş. Since none of us had the intention of investigation, within ten minutes we found ourselves in the luminous rays of the written part. While reading, nothing was heard except the occasional sounds of amazement and surprise coming from our mouths, and the evident tears flowing from our faces were sufficient to describe the spiritual joy we felt.
Dear Master; since each treatise is received with great joy among us, read with amazement, and respected as it deserves, when I received your letter regarding the mistake that happened, dear esteemed Master, if you had not informed us of this condition, we would never have been occupied with such a thing, and when defending against those who say "There is a mistake," we would not have hesitated at all. We had examined one by one the letter correspondences of the Sûre-i Kevser and the Eighth Remiz and found no deficiencies in any of them. Indeed, our examination was not aimed at searching for deficiencies, but rather perhaps to gain knowledge and also to receive spiritual nourishment. This evening, in the poorhouse, I was sitting with my brothers Refet, Lütfi, and Rüşdü Efendi and we discussed this matter again. We all said: Our Master did not need to tell us to say

It seems that even a weak indication and a hidden sign, and a single connection are sufficient for the intended meaning of the metaphorical and the signified meaning. Also, since the signs referring to the Risale-i Nur and its treatises, and its author and circumstances, are interrelated as supporting evidence, perhaps due to the unity of the subject, all the signs, together with their supporting evidence, have the effect of a strong indication and a decisive sign. Indeed, we can say that Hazrat Imam Ali (r.a.) said, "I began with بَدَئْتُ بِبِسْمِ اللّٰهِ رُوحِى بِهِ اهْتَدَتْ اِلٰى كَشْفِ اَسْرَارٍ بِبَاطِنِهِ انْطَوَتْ, meaning 'I began with the Bismillah, the treasure of secrets. My soul discovered that treasure through it,' thus indicating the metaphorical meaning and the intended meaning of the other signs, and in the form of a metaphorical meaning and a signified meaning, the Risale-i Nur's Bismillah, its prologue and invocation, and the Bismillah treatise, which explains the reality of the great secret in Bismillah, and is named the First Word, is a reference, perhaps an allusion, perhaps a sign.
Exactly so, by changing the wording and beginning to seek help through the secrets of the letters of the Qur'an, and in a style that recalls the nature of eight small treatises named Rumuzât-ı Semaniye, which discuss the secrets of the Qur'anic letters and the mysteries of the letters, and with the subtle indication of the invocation and supplication and the comprehensive and comprehensive invocation, and at the end of the prayers and the letters, after the reference, with the phrase بِوَاحِ الْوَحَا بِالْفَتْحِ وَالنَّصْرِ اَسْرَعَتْ, the Twenty-Ninth Letter, which explains some of the secrets of the Qur'anic letters and is the most important of the eight small treatises named Rumuzât-ı Semaniye, and which gives hidden news about many Islamic conquests such as the conquest of Mecca, the conquest of Syria, the conquest of Jerusalem, and the conquest of Istanbul.

A concise summary of the Noble Fatiha
The second part of the only lesson given in the Third Yusufi Madrasa for a very short time, during a brief contact period from the prison.
It is a short sample lesson given to the Nur disciples while in prison. It is as follows: To express the drop of the Fatiha-i Sharif sea and the precious stone in the sun's light, that is, one of the seven colors in its brilliance, the Fatiha in prayer commands the heart. Although in part of the 29th Letter, especially the imaginary journey in the "na'budu" word, and in the "Rumuz-u Semaniye" and the "Isharatul Icaz" tafsir and other Nur works, I have written about many sweet and beautiful points of this holy treasure. However, I was compelled, in one way, to write my thoughts in prayer, a very short summary of the belief's pillars and proofs, similar to the expression style in the first part, from this very sweet Quranic summary. I refer the "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful" to two or three of Nur's essays and begin with "Praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the worlds..."
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the worlds... etc.

On the first page of the Second Letter of the Twenty-Ninth Letter, after the question and answer, the following point will be written: This pamphlet is a kind of retaliation against the terrible assassination attempt to recite the translation of the Qur'an in the mosques instead of the Qur'an. It has included excessive details and unnecessary topics. However, in order to feel and convey a precious hidden key in that courageous and passionate response, even unnecessary details and weak and very subtle clues have also been included.
It occurred to my heart that: The very important, necessary, brilliant, and eloquent First Letter of the Twenty-Ninth Letter forgives all the faults and excesses of this Second Letter. And with great joy, I thanked and forgot those faults.
